City staff reported progress on water infrastructure and said they submitted two $2 million grant applications to support water and wastewater projects.
The city manager told council that the South Main waterline project has installed roughly 700 feet of new 8‑inch pipe and that crews expect to finish remaining saw cuts shortly. He also said staff submitted grant requests—one focused on the water system and another aimed at wastewater pond dredging—and planned to contact legislators (Senator Widen’s office was mentioned) to pursue appropriations.
